I tweaked the wording on this, but it's not far off from being correct! Kohl's is offering a Black Friday discount on the Apple Watch 2, but only very, very recently started carrying it. It's not available online and may not be in all stores.
My past experience with Kohl's has been that advertised electronics are usually available to the first shopper in the door. The inventory is very limited, and some items may not be there as advertised. I have QUIT looking at Kohl's ads based on my past experiences.
 
these are some really good deals. too bad I already have everything. Although I am tempted to get a 7+. With a trade in and all the discounts I can probably end up with the 256 gig model for under $400. I just don't have a desire to get rid of my 6s right now.
 
Slight correction, There is no Rose Gold version of the Retina Macbook 2015
1.2GHz, 8GB, 512GB SSD (Rose Gold) - $1,199, down from $1,599 ($400 off)

It should be just Gold! :)

Really appreciate macrumors for going through all the deals to bring out the best in a small snapshot!

Best Buy website is offering the iPhone SE with a $160 gift card. Best Buy has none in stock anywhere, and you cannot order online for delivery. I am really pissed. I just came from Best Buy and they will not on her the sale or give me a rain check.
 
The "free" iPhone 7 with trade in from Verizon deal is kind of confusing.

If I trade in my 6S for a "free" 7 x 24, when the 8 releases and I want to get that, I have the pay the remaining months out of 24 off.


Yes, because otherwise you could just buy it a month in advance and get the new one for free, but here's how I think it is working as I just went through it. I owed 12 months still on my 6s, so I had to pay that off so it looks like I had to pay $347 or whatever to upgrade. However, I am getting a new iPhone 7 that my monthly payment is $0 instead of the $27 or whatever I owed I was paying for monthly on my 6s phone. So, while they are getting their money in advance when I pay off the 6s, I am not having to make a monthly payment on the new iPhone 7, so it washes out after 12 months and I have, in effect, paid nothing to upgrade to a new iPhone 7. My brain hurts after spending an hour or so on the phone working through several phones of various vintages, so I think this is correct.

You are right, this is horribly confusing, and you don't want to do it if you have been drinking.

Apple could knock $500 off their Macbook Pro and they'd still probably make $500 profit. Apple's profit margins are RIDICULOUS these days. ALL their equipment is overpriced. It's why they have so much money and it's not deserved anymore. These models are awful these days and for no reason other than out of touch idiots designing them (look at the complaints about the new Macbook Pro) and sheer greed. Yet it doesn't stop the fanboy brigade from buying a new $3000 computer every year that they don't need so the profits continue despite every bonehead move Apple makes. It just means ordinary people have to switch back to Windows.
 
Apple in UK is giving away not even enough to cover Apple Care on iPad Pro 12.9"

No real incentive so think will either wait to see if something if any decent Christmas deals or failing that March for Pro 2
 
Apple Store offering €150 gift cards with MacBooks in france - not sure if this all the new models though- looks like a few older models in there too
 
I feel like Apple is spitting in the face of people who want the most current technology such as the iPhone 7 models.
 
i have to tend to agree that even at these prices the Macbook Air is ridiculously priced for 2 year old tech, and the newer MacBooks pro's wow. Windows 10 has gotten windows to the point where its pretty solid, and you can get all kinds of Windows laptops for a lot less with a lot better specs
 
A couple of days ago, Adorama had a Quad 3.7, 64GB RAM, Dual D500, 256GB SSD for $3499. I was going to reference it for you but I see it's $4299 now.

I needed one for a client, so as much as it pained me paying that money for an old horse, I had to.
Is that the one when Phil discounted 200 bucks earlier?
 
B&H has same discounts as last year.

I'm only seeing one discount for the six-core version... is that all they offer?

Picked up a 42mm Apple Watch series 1 for $228 with tax at Target. After buying my wife a series 2 a while back and seeing her have all the fun on it, I wanted to join the club :). Waiting for 3.1 to finish updating.

Welcome to the Club. I think you will like it. I love mine.

These prices are just plain sad, and reek of desperation. Sorry. The whole Apple lineup is just mixed-up and, as these "sale prices" reflect, just pathetic. If these products were flying off the shelves at their jacked-up prices, there woud not be the need for these "sales". Something's wrong in AppleLand.
 
I really wanted to buy a new iPad - but with all the hassle Apple has given me in the past weeks: I just skip it. Let's wait until my old iPads have been rendered useless by more iOS updates and reconsider if I stick with Apple or not.

Money saving day! :)
